PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

What’s Spermidine?

Spermidine is a naturally occurring polyamine characterized by the presence of two or more primary amino groups. It is widely found in ribosomes and living tissues and plays a vital role in cellular function and survival. Studies have shown that spermidine can extend lifespan in fungi, nematodes, insects, and rodents, highlighting its potential longevity benefits.

In humans, spermidine is synthesized from its precursor putrescine and is a key component in the production of spermine, another essential polyamine. It supports cellular health, growth, and maintenance and is essential for overall biological processes.

One of the most notable functions of spermidine is its role as a potent activator of autophagy – a natural cellular process that removes damaged components and promotes cell renewal. By stimulating autophagy, spermidine helps restore cellular activity and extend lifespan. Recent studies suggest that increasing dietary spermidine intake may reduce all-cause mortality, particularly by supporting cardiovascular health.

The Benefits of Spermidine

Spermidine has gained significant attention in recent years due to its potential health benefits. As a naturally occurring polyamine, it has been extensively studied for its role in various aspects of human health. However, while research is promising, it remains in the early stages, and many potential benefits have yet to be fully confirmed in humans.

Emerging evidence suggests that spermidine may support cardiovascular health, enhance fertility, and slow the aging process. It is known to activate autophagy, a cellular renewal process that helps extend lifespan, combat cellular aging, and maintain healthy cells, skin, and brain function.

Spermidine itself is the active ingredient in spermidine supplements.

Extend Life and Reduce Risk of Disease

Spermidine, much like fasting, activates protein deacetylation and autophagy, promoting healthy DNA function and the removal of senescent and toxic cells. Research suggests that spermidine supplementation may help lower the risk of various health conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Notably, strong evidence links spermidine to improved cardiovascular health. Studies on aged mice have shown that spermidine supplementation enhances heart structure and function, contributing to better overall heart health. These benefits are further associated with metabolic improvements, as spermidine helps restore mitochondrial structure and function, optimizing energy production and cellular efficiency.

Anti-inflammatory and Immune-boosting Properties

Preclinical laboratory trials suggest that spermidine reduces inflammation and slows cellular and tissue aging. A 2017 study further demonstrated its antioxidant properties, showing that spermidine protects against oxidative stress by reducing the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within cells. These harmful free radicals contribute to chronic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, ischemic heart disease, and various lung, kidney, and liver diseases.

While autophagy activation remains spermidine’s primary mechanism for promoting longevity, research suggests additional benefits. Studies indicate that spermidine also exhibits anti-inflammatory properties and plays a role in lipid metabolism, cell growth, proliferation, and apoptosis (programmed cell death), further contributing to overall health and longevity.

FAQs

What is spermidine?

Spermidine is a natural polyamine found in all cells in the body.

What does autophagy mean?

Autophagy is the term used to describe the process in which old/damaged cells are broken down and reused to create new, healthy cells.

Does Spermidine contain actual sperm?

No – although it’s a common question. That being said, Spermidine is found in semen, as it is present in all body cells.

What is it good for?

Spermidine has been linked with multiple health benefits including prolonged lifespan due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, as well as its ability to boost cell renewal and autophagy.

Which foods are highest in Spermidine?

There are many plant-derived foods with moderate to high levels of Spermidine; these include Soya beans, Wheatgerm, Vegetables (peas and mushrooms are both excellent sources) as well as cruciferous veg such as cauliflower or broccoli, Cheese (particularly cheddar, brie, parmesan, and gouda), Fruits (mangos and bananas particularly so).

Should I supplement with Spermidine?

Spermidine is a naturally occurring product so there are minimal risks associated with taking it in supplement form. Given the benefits it can have on the body and boosts cell renewal, immunity, and promotes antiaging, it’s certainly a recommended supplement on our list! That being said, if you have any doubts or existing health conditions, please check with your health provider first.

What is the recommended dosage for Spermidine?

6mg per day is an average dose, but it would be best to check with your health provider if you aren’t sure.

Does Spermidine have side effects?

There are no known side effects associated with taking Spermidine supplements.

Is Spermidine vegan friendly?

Yes, Spermidine is vegan-friendly.

How does spermidine work?

Spermidine has been characterized as a natural autophagy inducer. Autophagy is a process by which cells get rid of parts that are no longer needed or don’t work right, helping cells stay healthy and promoting longevity. Spermidine has been shown to block several enzymes that negatively control autophagy and may be as powerful as rapamycin, an FDA-approved immunosuppressant with strong autophagy-stimulating effects.
